I can't help with the primary questions, but I wanted to let you know you will have a decent chance of retaining your REP for the PR if it is only two years. I believe the requirement is only 3 out of the previous 5 years you need to show tax assessments. If it goes a bit over, the ongoing property...

Hi all, my wife (citizen) and I (PR) will be moving overseas for a while (at least 2 years, maybe longer; and yes, I know that this means I may lose my PR status). I have some questions regarding the things we need to do before we leave (or afterwards?) to keep all relevant government agencies infor...

I (30 years old, PTS) got the letter 2-3 months after I got PR. Can't remember the exact wording, but basically said that I do not need to go for NS. Got my PR in Feb this year

I cannot fathom a reason for this excuse A colleague had to wait a bit (few weeks, think 3?) for his passport once he had all fo...

Hi, I don't want to provide feedback on your situation (simply don't know if it's good or bad), but just want to let you know about some technical details: As part of the EP application, you need to fill out an application form (http://www.mom.gov.sg/Documents/services-forms/passes/EP_SPass_Form8.pd...

Hi, further details that would be useful for us: Did you apply under family or PTS scheme? If PTS, what is your income level?
